- The Spurs Are Losing, But Are Also Winning
Sometimes more... doesn't mean better. Haste is one of the worst enemies of any NBA franchise. Capable of wrecking the course of a team that is already destined to achieve great goals, just to accelerate a rebuild with trades that really aren't necessary. A recurring story that happens all too often.
But if done correctly, it can also end up being a blessing. The Houston Rockets, in fact, are the perfect example. The seemingly overpaid signings of Dillon Brooks and Fred VanVleet to improve the record and performance during a season in which Houston will be without its first-round draft pick… are paying off. The Rockets find themselves in playoff contention in a very tough Western Conference a couple of months into the season, and the team's young pieces like Jalen Green, Alperen Sengun or Jabari Smith are progressing in a big way. But... this is not the norm. In fact, Houston's current situation is an exception.

Thank you. THANK YOU. I mean it. All you have to do is read the comments sections of Spurs-oriented RUclips channels to see how many of the Spurs "faithful" are angry that we are losing so many games this seasons. They are calling for Pop to step down. They criticize every move, especially the Sochan-to-point-guard experiment. They are afraid that the Spurs are going to make Wemby want a trade with all of this losing. They are afraid that the players will start to get used to losing, and lose the winning mentality. They do not understand what the Spurs are doing. Pop clearly stated what is going on in his pre-game press conference against the Bulls last night, but these angry fans are done listening to him. Thank you for being an outside voice to spell it out for them. I doubt they will listen, but at least you have clearly articulated it.
Thanks! Spurs are a world class organization and definitely know what they're doing.
I looooove pop but he is absolutly not the right coach to deal with this young players. He is too old and did not deserve a tanking team as the final run. I get the fact we cant expect this team to be a contenter... but with 15 losing streak is not the question... the question is more about accepting or not to be tanking team which is the wooooorst thing of the nba game
Facts!!
Yeah as a spurs fan, I did need this, mainly because I wasn’t quite aware of the financial situation or the draft capital we have, and the bright future ahead. It’s really easy to get caught up on how things are going currently and start to believe that we are in a bad spot. But this was clutch.
Thanks for the support!
I mean if you're an educated fan you'd know those situations
@@blablablaa14 Like I said, it is easy to get caught up on how things are going currently, and lose sight of the bigger picture, and that I wasn’t quite aware, meaning there was little bits of info I didn’t know. That doesn’t make me a casual fan, or less of a fan. Relax bro, i’m not perfect and you sure as hell aren’t perfect either.
Current spurs are like OKC, should be very good in a few years
With all those draft picks they may just be better!
Spurs are non relevant for the past few years
5:40
Sounds like an eminen verse
😂😂😂
Not only is the draft capital the teams amassed over past few seasons, but they got mass class past the gassed stats of teams that are straight ass! Wemby off the glass!
Correction:
Wemby is FIRST in the league in Stocks (Steals + Blocks) per game. Not fifth.
At the time of writing, and at the time you recorded (and published) the video.
Good video anyway.
Highest future Cap Space in the league, and second most draft picks for the future.
They're just taking their time to use their card right, instead of skipping steps like the Mavs and the Cavs did with rookie Luka and Lebron.
When are people are going to realize that they're losing on purpose
i know but for who??
The pg Isaiah Collier he's probably looking like the best player in the draft or maybe that kid out of north Carolina they have a couple options
@@coltDagoat33Buzelis would be a nice piece to add 🏀💯
The best pick. Its not about a player. Its about getting the top choice of talent @@coltDagoat33
They are trying to turn Jeremy into a Scottie pippen/draymond swift army knight that could gaurd 1 through 5 and run point forward and and could cover a lot of ground in witch that would make them more switchable
Wemby is going to be one of the all time GOATS, watch!
Saying all time is redundant in that sentence
Too early to tell but he'll definitely be special!
You didn't do your research. Devonte Graham has a non guaranteed deal for next year for like $3M break up fee. So he's basically an expiring deal to keep flexibility for the Spurs and maybe trade. Otherwise they cut him or keep him so they can trade him next season (they may not want to sign anyone else with that money during a rebuild). Devonte's contract is very similar to other deals the Spurs made with Tre Jones/Zach Collins/Doug McDormont where they are not long and can be used in trades easily as they are a mid range salary of 10-20m
4:36, why do you say he's 5th when it shows he's 1st on the screen?
per game vs this season
@@JmssBraendle Thanks for the clarification
once sochan improved and get used into playing the PG spot, that will be the time where the spurs make a splash in the season.
This is all fine and dandy, BUT PLEASE PASS WEMBY THE ROCK
100 percent!
Him teammates don’t wanna see him shine. Especially Sochan. And I’m a spurs fan
They did last night against the Bulls. Maybe they heard you!
@@anthonytrevino3191 I don't (want to) believe that, Anthony. But it's just an opinion, like yours, because we really can't read their hearts and minds. But I am curious, what reason do you think Jeremy would have for not wanting Victor to shine? He was the first Spur to welcome Wemby to the team, and he is smart enough to know that Victor's success is everyone's success.
@@mediamannaman yup they did. Wemby needs to learn how to get easier shots now. Every time he dribbles from the top he gets picked.
Man that Devontae grahm contract is Crazyy. Just dosent really make any sense why they keep him at the end of the bench…maybe they are trying to keep him healthy so they can package him in some sort of trade?
Pop probably sees his ceiling and wants to develop the younger kids instead
There is no inflation just higher prices.
THE SPURS HAVE 17 DRAFT COMING.HELL YES SIR.😊
That will help them indeed!
The rockets are 2 games over .500 rn. They are not the model for success.
Thunder are gonna be awe at the Spurs, they are also following the thunder script the Spurs are playing chess.
As a rocket fan all drafts picks don’t add up to wins we had more drafts picks and still first 2 unprotected 1st from James harden the stocks pile all those 6 5 6 7 players that is all in the draft a bunch young players a bunch of losses
Everyone else on the team know they are expendable.. That can't feel good. Imagine having a job and then some hot shot comes in and all of a sudden you are no longer valued by your employer.
Big market teams seem to have unlimited funds to buy the best talent l.
If spurs get a pick in the draft 15 to 25 I see them grabbing brony and trying to sign LeBron
In two years Wenby will be a monster.
It's only the beginning 🙏
Assuming he can learn to shoot, learn shot selection, and not be a total pansy who can't near the basket without a defensive mistake. Oh and if he could not be turnover prone. Just those things....
I agree partly. I do think that they can expend a bit of assets, that they have plenty, in getting, for me, the 2 big things they need, a floor general PG and a better C than Collins. Also, i think that Sochan lerning how to playmake is fine as a backup general, but give him all of that...i don't see it. And Keldon as a 6th man it would be great for both him and the team.
But to me, this is what i see:
XXXX - Jones
Vassell - Branham
Sochan - Keldon
Wemby - Sochan
XXXX - Collins
That as a base, could be Houston level to be honest.
You are on point with the lineup,however I do think replacing Jeremy with a solid 3&D wing is a much better choice.
I enjoy his game and I do appreciate his versatility,however I still think playing as a glue-guy,a Draymond Green type of player,
is much more fitting for him. The only thing the Spurs need is spacing if we do have a star level PG and a good defensive center .However Jeremy isn’t quite good beyond the arc yet(I know he improved a lot,but still )😢
As of today, the Spurs are on a 17 Game Losing Streak how do you get worse when you’re supposed to get better?
get better in another season, not this season.
Thank you for explaining this !! All those nba fans or should i say marks are all saying wemby is gonna request a trade to the lakers which is not happening 😂😂😂😂
Thanks for the support!
Worry about spurs as a fan. Pops decision even if they appear like grand chess moves in a few season risk losing locker room and Wembys good faith. Also idc what anyone says vassell, Keldon, and especially have Sochan have really weird vibes to wemby. Which ranges to not getting him involved, missing him to straight up looking him off. The most tantalizing combo of Sochan-wemby doesn’t mean shit cause sochaj don’t like wemby cause he threatened by him. Meanwhile Wemby is prob wondering if this was the best move for him to get drafted by
...fire pop he already ruined keldon and vassell and trey and probably sochan...none are playing to were we all thought they would be this season...pop is about to be 75 time for him to go and leave the team...we need a coach that wants to win...pop is getting paid 17million a year to lose 18 games in a row...pop is done...fire pop
I can understand that logic for Spurs but what about Pistons? Why are they still.losing when their (overhyped pistons player) cade is playing already... And saying he is going to save Pistons 😂😂😂😂
Hmm idk. Thats a good one.They such very much
What happens when Monty trusted Hayes more than Ivey
No just losing
Dont pass the ball to wemby he needs to learn how to create his own shot. Alleyloops are too easy that will come once he learns how to shoot better from mid - and 3-point shots. Learning process. Why make it easy for him, then that will kill his motivation, especially being so young. He's actually improving if you noticed.i guess people dont get it. It's like going to a new job and having someone else do the job for you the whole time. You will never learn. It's like this whole world has never been to a new job before. That's how real life works. Learn on your own before people can step in and help.
Bro ur crazy. Drunks and Alleys are the up most pinnacle DNA of basketball, you take them wherever available. We ain’t gonna discard easy scores, it’s like saying no to winning. Rookie year, the team sucks, it’s a must to make easy scores his bread and butter. Finding his long range game comes after he has been proven to have scoring composure in the trenches.
Pop stunting wemby growth by putting Sochan at PG lmao the spurs might get investigated for tanking by the league and lose a top 5 pick
Its not victor’s team; its pop’s team. if pop retires and still has not won, victor will leave… pop has transfer coaching now….
You never know, if pop continues tanking or making confounding decisions for years, Wemby may want a new coach. He may be one of greats but there’s expectations vs reality
lol.....no
Bronny and Bron to Spurs next year!
Sochan and Vassell should be moved ASAP, both of them were expected to make a big leap but it we are already 20 games in and they have been disappointments.
I don't like Sochan and Johnson, Vassell makes good plays. Johnson's mentality is bulldoze bulldoze bulldoze and i don't like that. Too many offensive fouls and contested shots in the paint. Sochan is not a good fit for this team. They are trying to play him like draymond, but he doesn't have the IQ to play like that.
Wemby the next Christan Wood
Wenbanyama is a very bad offensive player who is not improving at all.
I just don’t see it or agree. They aren’t gonna lose into being good. It’s a con really… They can’t get free agents. I think haste is actually very necessary in the nba today.
Oh ya? How many NBA championship teams have you built?
@@JC-vz9vn as many as you have genius…💪🏻😂
@@thegoodfight8316 so you dont know what makes an NBA championship team. Thanks for the clarification
Wemby should have gone to the rockets
Pop sucks, Spurs suck, Wemby plays like a poor-shooting forward, but yeah, if they keep tanking eventually they'll probably have enough young talent to be a decent team again.
He’s playing with some absolute bums sorry
phila had jerami grant, robert covington and tj mcconnell on their rotation when they went 10-72. good nba players who needed more time to develop. spurs def have some talent there
@@AINTNOTEETH Right!!!!
Bro, you guys are some cowards. You guys are scared to say something about coach pop from the Spurs, he has lost 18 games in the row. Whenever you lose that many games, it's not the has soaked for quite a while. Every since the hall of famers have left, he cannot coach unless they have hall of famers. I don't care what you guys say. Coach pop is overrated and he has a media that is covering him right now. He should be fired
i think its safe to say most teams win with a good coach that has hall of famers lmao
